remotion-best-practices

This skill provides domain-specific best practices and code patterns for Remotion, a React-based video creation framework. Use it when building video projects that require animations, audio integration, captions, 3D rendering, data visualization, or asset management within Remotion compositions.

## When to use

Use this skills whenever you are dealing with Remotion code to obtain the domain-specific knowledge.

## Captions

When dealing with captions or subtitles, load the [./rules/subtitles.md](./rules/subtitles.md) file for more information.

## Using FFmpeg

For some video operations, such as trimming videos or detecting silence, FFmpeg should be used. Load the [./rules/ffmpeg.md](./rules/ffmpeg.md) file for more information.

## Audio visualization

When needing to visualize audio (spectrum bars, waveforms, bass-reactive effects), load the [./rules/audio-visualization.md](./rules/audio-visualization.md) file for more information.
